WHY LIST WITH THE FARE GROUP?

Selling your property can be a daunting experience. Few transactions in life are more personal or potentially complex. We understand this, and many FARE agents have been on one or both sides of the transaction in their own lives. By working with The FARE Group you’ll avoid the pitfalls, understand the process as it is happening, and therefore be free to focus on your future.

The FARE Group works in two distinctive capacities:  before signing the contract we act as your fiduciary in procuring a qualified buyer and after the contract signing as your transaction manager, ensuring a smooth progression through to closing.

We also disseminate our listings to numerous third-party real estate websites including Realtor, Streeteasy, Trulia and Zillow. Please refer to “How We Market” to learn more.

Qualify Prospective Buyers A successful transaction is based upon a buyer’s ability to qualify for financing and/or gain admittance into your building. We critically review all financial credentials before a recommendation to proceed is endorsed by our firm.

Negotiate Contract Terms FARE agents are experienced and specifically trained on key elements to successfully negotiate various terms of the deal such as sales price, down payment, financing conditions, closing date, inclusions and exclusions. When necessary, we may offer protected language for inclusion in the contract of sale.

In addition we provide you with an estimated timeline of events from the date an offer is accepted through to the date of closing.

Manage the Contract of Sale Process While it is your attorney’s responsibility to generate the contract of sale, we manage the contract signing process to ensure the smooth and full execution of same in a timely manner.

Prepare the Board Application (Required by Coops and some Condos) Upon contract signing, we will assist the buyer in compiling documents necessary to complete the board application as well as suggest ways in which to enhance the buyer’s application. We, further, critically review the application prior to its submission and prepare the buyer for the board interview when necessary.

Manage the Closing We assist in coordinating the closing date, time and location with interested parties and conduct the final walk thru with the buyer immediately preceding the closing. Your FARE agent will convey any issues upon final inspection to all pertinent parties as well as assist in the smooth resolution of same, when possible.

Transaction Management Listing to closing, The FARE Group will coordinate and oversee the entire sales process: pricing, marketing, negotiations, contract signing, mortgage process, appraisal, property inspection, board application, board interview and closing. We will act as a liaison between managing agent, mortgage representative and attorneys while keeping in constant contact with you regarding all developments concerning the sale of your property.
